Thanks


In making this card, I first sponged a piece of water-color paper with wilted violet distress ink and then spritzed it with some water. After it dried, I embossed it with a Tim Holtz Sizzix bubble wrapping ef; spritzed with water again, and watched as a touch of blue emerged here and there. I die-cut it with a Lil Inker stitched rectangle and placed it on a black card base. The postage stamp frame and flower were die-cut with unbranded dies and I added some purple stickles to the center of the flowers. The sentiment is from Sweet'n Sassy stamps.

I'm sharing this with the Cuttlebug Mania "Thanks" challenge. You need to use your manual die-cutting machine along with your dies.

Thanks for stopping by today and I hope your day is a great one!
